Hi All

Recently I have been very negative in my posts and have been having a hard time of it, have received some good advice on here both in terms of my failed relationship and my nagging anxiety, have took this on board and my son and I have had a nice day today, doing things we havent done in ages, as money is tight due to me been off work sick we cashed our coppers, went to pizza hut and had a game of bowling, then a long walk out with our dogs, made me realise what a lovely patient son I have (felt a little guilty that somethings so simple are a big thing to us lately) but we have set ourselves something to do each day together throughout the Easter holidays, this in its self is a good therapy!

no doubt my rants will continue but wanted to share my little step forward today, made me feel really good! lets hope many more are to come

Thanks to everyone who has advised me lately, felt i was under the biggest blackest cloud but just shows even the smallest steps can make us feel a load better - this is my first post under sucsess stories and hope I will have more to come, hope we all do!!

When if i ever have good days,i craddle my kids up with both my arms and thank god for my children.. because i used to think i have nothink ..no money..no clothes..no car.. i can never afford to go on hoilday with the kids.. it would get me down so so much.. and still does but i tell you .. when i think i have nothink i look at my kids and i think ..i do have something worth more than all the money in the world..my kids..my babies

What a lovely thing to do. To realise that you and your son are important and to spend quality time together. Well done that is a huge step forward, taking time out to smell the flowers is certaintly a step in the righht direstion.

Thanks both! :D:D:D

Its amazing that such small steps really do make a difference! I actually felt like Wendy with a life again and It been a long time since "she" was around and its all down to the support I get here, think one thing anxiety does is make us apprecaite the smaller things in life more that many people take for granted,

Well done Wendy.

Each step is one closer to where you want to be. Usually we start with little baby steps and other times we move on a bit more quickly. There are lots of ups and downs, though you will gradually find the ups outnumbering the downs.

I expect your son is excited to spend time with you and have little things planned for the holidays and that is all that matters.

So many congratulations for yesterday and good luck for the rest of the holidays. I hope you enjoy the experiences as much as your son.

Hi All

Thanks for the support! :D

Made it out again today, we went to a place I used to go when I was a child that had really happy memories for me, took a picnic and dogs and we spent 3 hours walking and getting wet and muddy!!!

Had some anxiety this evening and a couple of panic attacks but for just to have some normal days is so nice, tomorrow is the beach and I am determined Im going to do it, I know I have a long journey ahead but these days make it worth the stay and if I can do this with my constant fear of dying we all can!!

Thanks again

Love

Wendy xx
